MLA - Laura Ross - Regina Rochdale

Dear Lord. We pray today
for Laura Ross. We ask you to uphold her in spiritual resource. May she be
inspired by you and challenged to give that extra amount. May she see the fruit
of her labour in the people of her riding. Amen.

Laura Ross was born and raised on the family farm near Yorkton and attended the University of Regina where she obtained a B.A. in geography and sociology. For more than twenty years, Laura was a licensed realtor in Regina specializing in residential properties. Prior to her success as a realtor, she operated her own catering company and farmed with her husband Terry.

Laura was first elected MLA for Regina Qu'Appelle Valley in the 2007 provincial election. She was re-elected in 2011 and 2016. Laura was appointed as Legislative Secretary to the Minister of Health, responsible for retention and recruitment of nurses, long-term care and the reduction of surgical wait times. She was also appointed a term as the Minister of Government Services and she previously served on the Standing Committee on Intergovernmental Affairs and Justice.

Laura currently serves as a member of the Board of Internal Economy and the caucus Management Committee.
